As SDUT's Michael Gehlken stressed, it's unclear whether Floyd's NFL career can continue with the possibility it cannot appearing very real. It remains to be seen to what extent he recovers from his spinal disc issue, and even then, the risk of re-injury must be assessed before the decision to play is made. "It's not quite there yet, but it's getting there," Floyd said. "There's really no timetable. It's pretty much just basing it on how I am and how well I feel. ... There's still a little discomfort in there, but it's a lot better. ... I'm getting there. It just felt good to start running again and becoming more active. I'm feeling a lot better as far as that goes. ..." We'll continue to follow up as developments warrant.
